A leading group of Farm vets in the UK, Ireland and Holland.
This is just a brilliant example of Farm vets making a real difference. A huge shout out to Brownlow and Park Issa Farm Vets for dropping everything and attending this emergency. These are very difficult situations, working with the emergency services and the farmers, in a very public environment. Great work and great outcome.
A team of vets have been hailed heroes after their quick actions saved the lives of dozens of cattle from an overturned lorry.
Congratulations Wensum Valley Vets - Sustainability is a key priority for us and fantastic to see you achieve this landmark - The competition is on now to see who will join you!!

Here at IVC Evidensia Farm Vets, we love cows, so we are running on farm training courses for our vets and vet techs on Stress-free Handling and Cow Flow, to reduce stress and save time for everyone. Looking at how cow flow affects everything from lameness to staff morale, and how small improvements to the design of the facilities can have big impacts.
Happy cows, happy farmers, happy vets

As a profession, I think we can be proud of what we have accomplished here. 7 years and a halving of antibiotics 👍
The latest VARSS and RUMA Targets Task Force 2 reports capture steady progress in stewarding responsible antibiotic sale and use across the UK livestock sector.
An Avian Influenza Prevention Zone (AIPZ) has been declared across Great Britain effective from 5pm on 3 November 2021. The AIPZ means all bird keepers in Great Britain (whether they have pet birds, commercial flocks or just a few birds in a backyard flock) are required by law to take a range of biosecurity precautions.
This is not a mandatory housing order, but the situation may change.
For more information relevant to where you are, please see the APHA link below:
